Probably. Our kids' pediatrician won't be offering H1N1, so we'll have to look elsewhere. We're also getting the normal flu vaccine.

Yes, most likely. We will go for the shot and not the nasal spray though. One of our friends is immuno compromised and can't even be around other kids who get the live virus (nasal spray)

I'm praying on it. Seriously. I believe that I will recieve an answer to my prayers when the time is right.

I'm not sitting around being paranoid about it but I am also not sitting around blowing it off like it is made up by the FDA & my 21 month old will be just fine if he gets it...how do I know? Hence, praying on it.

Did so for the seasonal flu shot (which I debated) & felt very confident and comfortable with the decision.

Yes! And for us, the sooner the better. My kids are too old and never had the pneumonia vaccine and we get seasonal flu shots with no side effects every year. I see no problem!

The kids that are getting swine flu in my area now are much sicker than the ones who got it in the spring.

I almost wish my kids had gotten it in the spring and over with.
